During the campaign, when word surfaced of the $150K supposedly spent by the RNC on Sarah Palin's clothes, people said the Democrats didn't have a corresponding problem, because the clothiers were willing to provide them with freebies, and, being 'Rats they accepted them, even though they amount to illegal campaign contributions.
When you look at how small Michelle Obama’s breasts and waist are in comparison to her hips, thighs and butt - and plus the fact that she is six feet tall - you just KNOW she cannot buy ANYTHING off the rack and gets her clothes custom made for her um, unique physique. She is way taller than the average woman and far more lopsided in her proportions. No way a standard size will fit her. Even those J Crew clothes. They probably tailored the heck out of them before gifting them to her (who ELSE could wear them after, anyway?)
